I created RET at the beginning of 1955 after I had abandoned the practice of psychoanalysis because I found it to be highly inefficient and philosophically superficial. Being almost addicted to one-to-one therapy as a result of my analytic training and experience, I at first did RET only with individual clients and found this pioneering form of CBT considerably more effective than the other ther- apies with which I had experimented. By 1957, however, I realized that RET could be taught to large num- bers of persons through self-help books and articles and that RET -ori- ented writings could not only prove valuable to the general public but that they could also be successfully employed to hasten and intensify the therapy of my individual clients. I therefore wrote a number of RET self- help books-especially How to Live with a Neurotic (1957), Sex without Guilt (1958), A New Guide to Rational Living (with Robert A. Harper; original edition, 1961), and A Guide to Successful Marriage (with Robert A. Harper, 1961).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45281984184471,"sku":"9781461583325","price":3672.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781461583325.webp?v=1769300798","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/a-therapists-manual-for-cognitive-behavior-therapy-in-groups-9781461583325","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
